Beyond that, you don\u2019t actually have much choice: unlike <i>Baldur\u2019s Gate<\/i>, there aren\u2019t many mods available for <i>Planescape: Torment<\/i>, but what <i>is<\/i> available is pretty much necessary for a smooth gameplay experience, due to the game\u2019s rather unpolished default state. I guess that\u2019s what you call a diamond in the rough. These mods are mostly the work of a modder called Qwinn and are dedicated to fixing bugs and restoring cut content, but there are also some helpful convenience tweaks. You can find all of this at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shsforums.net\/\">Spellhold Studios<\/a> (or SHS) and some at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.gibberlings3.net\/\">The Gibberlings Three<\/a>&nbsp;(or G3), both of which are forums for active modding communities. I will list the mods in the order they should be installed in.<br \/>\n<a name=\"weidu\"><\/a><br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/weidu.org\/main.html#weidu\">WeiDU<\/a> by Weimer:<\/strong> Short for \u201cWeimer\u2019s Dialogue Utility\u201d, named after its creator. This isn\u2019t actually a mod, but a compiler program that&nbsp;will take care of installing all your PST mods. It largely automates the process and generates a handy log that&nbsp;lets you keep track of everything you\u2019ve installed and the order you\u2019ve installed it in, which is very important, especially if you run into bugs or incompatibilities. Every mod on this list is installed via WeiDU.<br \/>\n<a name=\"widescreen\"><\/a><br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/forums.gibberlings3.net\/index.php?s=922a5df01d444b491baf22bc1cee33f7&amp;app=downloads&amp;showcat=63\">Widescreen Mod<\/a> by the bigg: <\/strong>This mod allows you to run the game at any resolution you wish. Simple, but effective and highly recommended. What\u2019s more, you can also use it for BG, BGII, <i>Icewind Dale<\/i> and <i>Icewind Dale II<\/i>.<br \/>\n<a name=\"UI\"><\/a><br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shsforums.net\/files\/file\/683-ghostdogs-pst-ui-mod-v22\/\">PS:T UI Mod<\/a> by GhostDog:<\/strong> The Widescreen Mod is all well and good, but the problem is that PST doesn\u2019t really like high resolutions. So this mod is designed to make the game\u2019s <acronym title=\"User Interface\">UI<\/acronym> play nice once the Widescreen Mod is installed. It re-centres most windows and makes them prettier. Additionally, there\u2019s also the option of making all fonts bigger to be more easily readable.<br \/>\n<a name=\"fixpack\"><\/a><br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shsforums.net\/files\/file\/647-pst-ultimate-weidu-fixpack-v413\/\">PS:T Ultimate WeiDU Fixpack<\/a> by Qwinn:<\/strong> A plethora of bugfixes from various sources, kindly compiled into one common installation by Qwinn. We\u2019re talking stuff like broken dialogue, unavailable items, bugged quests, spelling mistakes. Needless to say that this goes a long way towards improving the game\u2019s playability. Additionally, it offers the option to turn on subtitles during cutscenes.<br \/>\n<a name=\"unfinished\"><\/a><br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shsforums.net\/files\/file\/648-pst-unfinished-business-v412\/\">PS:T Unfinished Business<\/a> by Qwinn:<\/strong> Again, this is a collection of several people\u2019s work, compiled by Qwinn. It restores several quests, creatures and dialogues that&nbsp;were cut from the game, in particular a consequential section concerning Deionarra. It mostly depends on whether you think cut content was cut for a reason or not. I\u2019m rather adamant about getting as much of the original content as possible, but your mileage may vary. The cut content has been reintegrated pretty seamlessly though, so I would say that it\u2019s worth your while.<br \/>\n<a name=\"tweak\"><\/a><br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shsforums.net\/files\/file\/649-qwinns-pst-tweak-pack-v412\/\">PS:T Tweak Pack<\/a> by Qwinn:<\/strong> This mod implements several very useful tweaks that&nbsp;help deal with the more annoying aspects of the game. This includes, in no particular order:<\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify; list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>Making jewellery and scrolls stackable for easier inventory management.<\/li>\n<li>A more sensible way to display <acronym title=\"To Hit Armour Class 0\">THAC0<\/acronym>, <i>\u00e0 la<\/i> BGII.<\/li>\n<li>Allowing the party to rest anywhere.<\/li>\n<li>Identifying all items, so that you don\u2019t have to waste time by doing it yourself.<\/li>\n<li>Removing the fog of war from all areas of Sigil.<\/li>\n<li>Introducing a way to save Nordom, should you forget to free a party slot before travelling to Curst to pick up Vhailor. This way, you can swap Nordom out for Vhailor, then rescue him once you\u2019re done with Curst.<\/li>\n<li>Shortened banter timers, which allows you to hear more of the scripted inter-party banter.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And other things as well.<br \/>\n<a name=\"ddraw\"><\/a><br \/>\n<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/bitpatch.com\/ie_ddrawfix.html\">DDraw Fix<\/a> by aqrit:<\/strong> This is a purely technical mod intended for modern PCs, as some of the newer NVidia graphic cards may cause display glitches in PST. Just like the Widescreen Mod, this can also be reused for BG and <em>Icewind Dale<\/em>, should you encounter similar technical difficulties with them.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Music\" href=\"https:\/\/grafskaya.club\/mysst\/detailed-reviews-n-z\/planescape-torment\/music\/\"><strong>&lt;&lt; Back to: Music<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WeiDU Widescreen Mod PS:T UI Mod PS:T Ultimate WeiDU Fixpack PS:T Unfinished Business PS:T Tweak Pack DDraw Fix Before you install anything else, you need the latest official patch for the game.
